Necrolytic migratory erythema (NME), diabetes mellitus and glucagon-secreting
tumors form the hallmarks of glucagonoma syndrome, and represent the major
clinical manifestations of glucagonoma. NME is usually presented as the initial
complaint of patients. Due to the rare incidence of glucagonoma, its diagnosis is
often delayed, which leads to its progression. Here, we report a case of NME with
a typical skin rash, which was misdiagnosed and treated with corticosteroids for
two years. Removal of the tumor in the pancreatic body led to the rapid relief of
the symptoms. The aim of the present study is to demonstrate the typical
characteristics of glucagonoma syndrome to clinicians in order to improve its
diagnosis and treatment.
